Ubisoft has just uploaded this week’s episode of Behind the Odyssey, showing their version of Ancient Greece in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey. Ancient Greece will change depending on how you play the game, and your experience will greatly vary depending on your actions and behaviours.

Ubisoft states that the historical characters in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey are very accurate, as they were able to get a massive amount of information on them, such as Sokrates, and recreate them in the Assassin’s Creed universe. Ancient Greece is full of colour and you’ll find life wherever you look. Just take a look at when Alexios dives underwater and swims among the ancient (double ancient?) ruins and jellyfish; Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is looking amazing.

BECOME A LEGENDARY SPARTAN HERO Embark on your journey from humble beginnings to living legend as Alexios or Kassandra. Customize your gear, upgrade your abilities, and personalize your ship on your path to becoming a Spartan hero.

ANCIENT GREECE AWAITS From the heights of snowy mountain peaks to the depths of the Aegean Sea, explore an entire country full of untamed environments and cities at the peak of Greece’s Golden Age. Unexpected encounters will breathe life into your story as you meet colorful characters, battle vicious mercenaries, and more.

CHOOSE YOUR OWN PATH Your decisions shape the world around you with over 30 hours of choice dialogue and multiple game endings. Experience a living, dynamic world that constantly evolves and reacts to your every decision.

FIGHT EPIC BATTLES Show off your extraordinary warrior abilities and shift the tides of battle during one of the deadliest conflicts of the time, the Peloponnesian War. Charge into epic clashes between Sparta and Athens in big battles pitting 150v150 soldiers against each other.

A LAND OF MYTHS AND LEGENDS Discover a world rich with myths and legends. From ancient rituals to famed statues, come face to face with Greece’s legendary figures and discover the true nature of mythological beasts like Medusa and the Minotaur.

It looks like that’s the end of the Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Behind the Odyssey developer diary as there was no information on what to expect next week, but stay tuned to Rocket Chainsaw as we’ll be covering all the latest information on Odyssey over the next few weeks before launch.

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will launch on October 5, 2018 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC platforms. For more information, head to the official Australian Assassin’s Creed Odyssey website here.
